Twined

by FTS Miles   Jan 2, 2005


Evergreen eyes of primordial spirit
haunt her present earthy tones,
evoke my heart with reminiscent potency.
Voiceless words of tender wisdom
echo the cherished songs of my heart.
I fight, I struggle, but it is solely
tainted intellect that denies you.
My ageless self embraces you,
irrevocably responds to you,
makes you a part of myself
(or accepts our eternal mirror).
And so I welcome you within,
savoring your ephemeral caress
like a delectable moment stolen
from the world’s battering chaos.

    Simply divine...as innocense enraptures a minor cynicism.
    And again as so often before your poise is one of a kind.
    Great job (5)

    wow, again, beautiful. I love the romance in this peice, the symbols and intimate comparisons really add a dramatic effect to the emotion and impact the reader. I really liked the lines,
    "savoring your ephemeral caress
    like a delectable moment stolen
    from the world’s battering chaos."
    Those were just so beautifully put and the word choice added a pleasent and lovely effect to the piece. I also really admire the symbol of the "eternal mirror" I thought that was really lovely. Well done, excellent
